Geocache Description:

Cache IS at the posted coordinates, but you MUST fulfill the requirements in order to log a find on this cache!

To complete this challenge you need find 9 caches that have titles that start with the letters needed to spell Galveston.


For Example, you might choose these caches:
G - GC1F2R8 - Galveston Island TB Hotel
A - GC1QKEM - A MOD place to meet friends
L - GC35G1V - LassoAGeo
V - GC1X513 - "Velasco, Riverside Park"
E - GC2AHQ8 - Everything You Need
S - GC38RP4 - Steward Beach Prize
T - GC2AHW2 - The Rosenberg
O - GCV91V - Old L.M. cemetery
N - GC2X6KK - No Fish at This Bridge


If you are using the checker - capture the data so it shows your caches, like above! Don't just use the part that says "xxxx qualifies."


Simple rules:


1. Only finds on or after 1/1/2012 count for this challenge.

2. Any cache type qualfies.

3. Only finds in the great State of Texas count for this challenge, but you are encouraged to make your finds on or near Galveston.

4. Special characters are disregarded, and the first letter counts. Numbers do not count - so if a cache starts with a number it's no good.

5. Show us your caches. You can upload a GSAK or other stat program screenshot. You can bookmark them (noting the found date). Or you can list your caches in your found log using the following format:

Title -- GC -- Date Found

If you are using the checker - capture the data so it shows your caches, like above! Don't just use the part that says "xxxx qualifies."

6. You can sign the log for this challenge at any time and log a 'note' to the cache page, mentioning you signed the log. But you may not log a find until you have completed the requirements (this way you don't have to go back to sign after you complete the requirements!). Once you complete the requirements, edit your log, change it to found, and change the find date to the date you completed the requirements and list the required information.

Enjoy Galveston while you're here!
